Sleep Under the Stars 2022

Sleep Under the Stars in partnership with Stepping Stone House

Did you know that 38% of all Australians experiencing homelessness are under the age of 25?

That's over 43,000 children and young people, all unable to live at home. The leading causes of youth homelessness are housing crisis, family violence, family separation and breakdown. Many kids resort to couch-surfing or living temporarily with other households and some are even are forced to live rough on the streets.

Lotus People feel very passionately that these young people deserve our help which is why we're proud to have participated in Sleep Under the Stars 2022, a fundraising event held together with our long-time charity partner Stepping Stone House, last October 14th at Taronga Zoo!

Show solidarity and support in making a difference in the lives of young Australians experiencing homelessness, we have raised a total of $58.4k, which will help provide 33 at-risk youth the support they need in finding security and stability for a brighter future.

We could not have achieved this much without your help and we are grateful to everyone who donated and shared what they can for this cause – your support has made a real impact on someone’s life, and we thank you for the kindness.

Taking action to help these children does not end here for Lotus People!

But before you hand in your resignation or start firing off job applications, it’s worth taking a pause and looking at what’s really causing that feeling. Here’s what we’d recommend before making any big decisions:
